I hope you don't mind. –Martin Scharrer♦ Apr 13 '12 at 17:38 2 This seems to be an issue with your MikTeX installation rather with PGF/TikZ. Make sure that the output PDF is not already open, e.g. from an earlier compilation run. The Access is denied might be caused by that. Did you tried to reboot and try it again? Under Windows this is always good advice. –Martin Scharrer♦ Apr 13 '12 at 17:41 2 After looking at docs.miktex.org/manual/initexmf.html, I think this might be because of Windows restrictions. Try to run MikTeX package manager and update the DB, at best using admin rights. Alternative try the initexmf --admin --update-fndb in the console as mentioned in the link. –Martin Scharrer♦ Apr 13 '12 at 17:43 add a comment| 11 Answers 11 active oldest votes up vote 27 down vote You have to give yourself the permissions to read and write in MiKTeX 2.9 folder. Go to Program Files and right click MiKTeX 2.9 folder. Then click Properties > Security Tab > Edit Button. Select Users (Bla/Bla) from the list and check all grants. If that is not enough, click Advanced button on the Security Tab. A window named Advanced Security

Help Windows API error 21 (device not ready) Forum: Help Creator: Achimota Created: miktex windows 10 2006-10-12 Updated: 2012-10-17 Achimota - 2006-10-12 I am running Miktex 2.5 on a Windows XP platform. Most of the time latex online when I try typing on a command line c:> latex simple.tex I get the error message "Windows API error 21: The device is not ready". I say "most of the time"; sometimes, it http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/51799/windows-api-error-5-access-is-denied-when-trying-to-compile-tikz-picture works just fine. It seemed to depend on the random contents of memory. I even wrote a small C program to initialize the contents of 100s of MBytes of RAM to 0x00 or some other value, and then run latex again. But this did not seem to have any effect. I have lots of free memory available -- about 28 Gbytes free hard-drive space and more https://sourceforge.net/p/miktex/discussion/33790/thread/2ea31d61/ than 500 Mbytes free RAM space. No other software on the computer seems to have any problem. If I try using latex.exe without a tex file, such as, c:> latex then it seems to operate normally. That is, the "Windows API error 21" may have something to do with not being able to access the tex file. But again, other times there is no problem at all. I have tried using DebugView with environment MIKTEX_TRACE=access,config,core,curl,dib,dvibitmap,dvicolor,dvigc,dvihypertex,dvipage,dvipkbitmap,dvipkchar,dvipkfont,dvisearch,dvitfm,dvivfchar,dvivfont,env,error,files,filesearch,fndb,fontinfo,mmap,mpm,packages,process,tempfile,values The last few lines of the result are: 00001987 135.64683533 [3652] + videoCreateDriverList 00001988 135.64689636 [3652] + videoFreeDriverList 00001989 135.64692688 [3652] - videoFreeDriverList 00001990 135.64707947 [3652] Drivers32: idx 0, DriverName vfwwdm32.dll ( 1c08e4 ) 00001991 135.64721680 [3652] videoCreateDriverList: DeviceList contains 1 Video Device(s). 00001992 135.64726257 [3652] videoCreateDriverList: aCapDriverList[0]: DriverName vfwwdm32.dll, Desc WDM Video For Windows Capture Driver (Win32) 00001993 135.64729309 [3652] - videoCreateDriverList 00001994 135.65653992 [3652] + videoFreeDriverList 00001995 135.65921021 [3652] - videoFreeDriverList If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link: pinin4fjords - 2007-04-24 Hi there, I have this message too- only for me it is constant- i.e. it is currently impossible for me to get the
